Yes, poll taxes are illegal in all government elections.
Poll taxes were effectively abolished by the 24th Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified in 1964, which prohibited the use of poll taxes in federal elections. Additionally, in 1966, the Supreme Court case Harper v. Virginia Board of Elections ruled that poll taxes in state elections were unconstitutional. These actions collectively eliminated poll taxes as a barrier to voting in the United States.
A poll tax was a fee required to vote. A person who who could not or did not want to pay the fee could not vote. Poll taxes discouraged ex-slaves from voting.
